☀The Song☀

Chapter 6

As the fourth movie ended, I slowly realized how tired I was. He must have felt it too.
"Do you want to watch another or go to sleep?" He asked after yawning.

"It doesn't matter to me," and it was true, I didn't care as long as I was with him.
He thought about it for awhile, "we can watch another, and if we fall asleep, oh well." I liked that he was taking charge if this, it made me feel a lot safer for some reason.

We fell asleep in the middle of "The Princess and the Frog" lying together wrapped up in a mass of blankets and pillows. I could have stayed there in his arms forever.

It was going to be hard to top that night, but he did.when I woke up, it was strangely cold in the bed. I rolled over to find that Gil had left. I got up to put on day clothes when he comes storming through the door, scoops me up into his arms, and races down the stairs to the kitchen where he promptly sat me down on a stool behind the breakfast bar.

"Well good morning to you too," I almost couldn't contain my laughter. "Now, may I ask what all that was for?"

"One cannot properly eat breakfast without first being in their pj's," he remarked in the most sarcastic tone he could muster.

"An a simple 'breakfast is ready' wouldn't suffice?"

"But you see my dear, that would be too easy."

"Well alrighty then," I laughed. "What's on the menu chef?"

"Chocolate chip pancakes," he said as he brought them over an placed a kiss on the top of my head.

As I looked at the plate in front of me, I couldn't believe that he actually made them. Perfectly shaped, evenly brown, it was all too good. There was even powdered sugar sprinkled over the top on the shape of a heart.

I looked at the stovetop and saw the messiest cooking station I have ever seen. Even the garbage can had evidence of all his efforts to make them perfect. This was too much not to say it, I couldn't help myself. Not after he wet through all that trouble just to make breakfast.

I turned my stool around to meet his intent gaze, looked him square in the eyes, those beautiful brown eyes, and I knew I had to say it.

"Gil, I think I'm in..." I couldn't get out any more of the sentence before he silenced me with a kiss.
